Frequently asked questions
Below are some of the questions prospective and new pupils often ask. Please feel free to call should you have any queries that you would like to discuss directly
Can I have more than 1 lesson a week?
Of course you can. The less time between lessons will help you learn quicker as you will need to spend less time acclimatising yourself to the car each time. Please call to discuss availability.
Are you a qualified instructor?
Yes. In order to conduct driving lessons on a professional basis, all instructors must be registered with the DVSA.
Some driving schools may choose to use ´PDI´s (potential driving instructors). These are registered instructors who have not yet passed the final part of their instructors test. PDI´s will display a pink triangular badge in the car windscreen. We only use fully qualified instructors, We all display a green octagonal badge in the car windscreen. Don´t be afraid to ask for confirmation!
How many lessons will I need?
There are many factors that determine how many lessons you will end up needing. Age, gender, attitude, personality and the ability to practise when not in lessons all contribute.
Once you have had a few lessons, we will be better able to judge this for you.
